THE VATICAN AND ENGLAND.

How the Prejudice Against Catholics
and the Church has Died Away.
Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
LONDON, Dec. lathe Duke OF Norfolk started
yesterday ior Rome on mission TO the pope in
behalf Of Queen Victoria Considering the I'M
poFtance Of the pope to English politics. owing TO
his influence In Ireland, 1t is rather remarkable
that there is so seldom an interchange OF commu-
nications between England and the vatican. Even
when Gladstone sent Errlngton to Rome he was
compelled to represent the mission as unofi-
cial, although he admitted in parliament
that he had asked Errington 70 ascertain
the popes views on certain matters
Affecting the Irish questions The feeling he has
tried to conciliate Is survival from days when
Catholics were not allowed TO vote at elections or
serve the country IN any capacity, or even build
steeples on their churches IL Is giving way by
degrees however, and the present mission is not
likely to awaken any hostile prejudice In any
merely the bearer OF the queens good wishes on
the occasion OF her recent jubilee the pope sent
his congratulations TO the queen, together with
present.
ASKING DISSERTATIONS FOR FREE MASON LODGES.
Ihappen to know from private sources, though
1t has not been stated here yet, that Norfolk was
approached before his departure by q number OF
representative men among the Catholics, who
asked him TO intercede with the pope 10 grant
lodges In England II was urged that a number OF
artistic and literary men could not join their fel
lows, who mostly belong TO one or other OF the ar
tistic lodges I understand that Norfolk did not
hold out any hope that he would undertake TO do
as requested. In any case the result would prob
ably be the same. as the aversion OF the Cotholic
Church TO any secret society is too strong 70 be
readily set aside.
